CRP and dermatomyositis: The resistin mRNA levels in DM-ILD positively correlated with serum alanine aminotransferase (r = 0.476, p = 0.003), aspartate aminotransferase (r = 0.488, p = 0.002), lactate dehydrogenase (r = 0.397, p = 0.014), C-reactive protein (r = 0.423, p = 0.008), ferritin (r = 0.468, p = 0.003), carcinoembryonic antigen (r = 0.416, p = 0.011), carbohydrate antigen 125 (r = 0.332, p = 0.047), interleukin-18 (r = 0.600, p < 0.001), and lung visual analog scale values (r = 0.326, p = 0.048), but negatively correlated with the diffusing capacity of carbon monoxide (DLco)% (r = −0.447, p = 0.041).
